"I felt really lonely at school" - Cristiano Ronaldo's partner Georgina Rodriguez says her mum thought she was autistic when she was young

Cristiano Ronaldo's partner Georgina Rodriguez recently shared how it was difficult for her to make connections during school. It even led to her mother believing that she was autistic.

Georgina Rodriguez, 29, was born in Argentina but moved to Spain when she was just a year old. In her Netflix docuseries 'I Am Georgina', she shared her memories from her childhood and also shared how lonely school was for her. She added that her mother put her in ballet classes as he thought the now Spanish influencer was autistic.

Georgina said (via her docuseries 'I Am Georgina'):

"I was scared of the nuns and they were the teachers. I felt really lonely at school. My mom thought I was autistic because I loved to be by myself, at peace in my own world. That is why she signed me up for ballet."

She added:

"Later, the ballet teachers told her, “She’s not autistic.” It’s just that I didn’t really fit in at the park, or at school with my classmates. Maybe we just didn’t vibe. There wasn’t a connection with them."

Georgina Rodriguez completed her formal studies at Centro de Estudios Financieros in 2019. She also learned dance and has done multiple ads, modeling jobs, and more. The Spaniard is a big media personality now and is also famous for dating footballing superstar Cristiano Ronaldo.
